MUSTAINE ÜBER METALLICA! | 24.08.01
Dave Mustaine, Metallicas ehemaliger Gitarrist, der 1982 gefeuert und von Kirk Hammett ersetzt wurde, hat im "Free Speech For
The Dumb"-Forum von metallica.com einiges über sich, seine Band Megadeth und Metallica gepostet. Das gleiche wurde auch
nochmal auf seiner Homepage megadeth.com bestätigt. Das Thema des Threads im Met-Forum ist "Topic: i never thought i
would do this " und wurde am 21. August 2001 um 06:05 AM gepostet. Folgendes hat Dave uns zu sagen:
Here is my first actual post over at Metallica.com
Metallibangers was what you were called back when I was in this band. I remember someone saying 'bang the head that
doesn't bang' and this was our motto.
Somehow we have all gotten away from this simple rebel cry.
I am here now, not to try to dissuade you from being a Metallica fan. To the contrary, I am here to say thank you for
being a Metallica fan.
I am here to say that I don't condone people coming up to me and saying something negative about my former band
mates either. Sure there was a time when both camps were in a cold war, but those 'times' have been over for a long time.
And even though the tension is still slight, I wish only the best for Metallica.
My heartfelt best wishes go out to James. I know what he is feeling right now, and I know what people are saying.
The people said it about me.
Friends, I would love to do this fantasy Metallica/Megadeth tour, but only after knowing that James is ok.
I would love to play together with James and Lars again, and have said so in interviews. Me and David Ellefson, James
and Lars, doing half mega/half meta, James singing my songs and me singing his. That would be a riot. It could suck,
it could be great, but I know that it would be fun for us all to get back to the day when metal was a 'way of life' and
people looked to us all as their leaders.
I won't take up anymore of your time here. In closing I assure that if we catch people over at megadeth.com slagging
Metallica, we try to stop it.
But as you are aware there are assholes everywhere on the Internet. I am sure there are people that come here
that aren't even Metallica fans, just to post shit about them.
Not me.
I am a fan. And although I was really hurt by getting fired, I have always been a fan.
Dave Mustaine
Mustaine sez,
GOODBYE DROOGIES!

einzugestehen, und bedankt sich für die Unterstützung der Fans. Hetfield wird seit zwei Wochen wegen Alkoholismus
